WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE 15, 1842. CLAY CLUB It is quite evident now and if there had been any doubts upon the subject, the last Statesman would have dialled them that the meeting on Saturday evening was any thing but to the taste of the " html money faction who are laboring hard to coax the people of Ohio to believe thai u democracy " is good to eat! Well now, this is to be regretted ; and as the Editor finds especial fault with some of the resolutions, we suggest, when the Whigs aguin attempt to express their sentiments, that before they commit them to the public they have thorn printed in the O-hio Statesman, and obtain the Editor's approval ! This would remove at least one cause of complaint If the Prophet will not come to the mountain, let the mountain go to the Prophet Let there bo no distentions between tho Whigs and the courteous State Printer! HAM Ell. Mr. Hnmer, a "pretended democrat, has written a very atl'ectionute letter to Mr. S. Medury, of the "hard money faction," dated the (Jtlt hint The latter not having given publicity to thio specimen of epistolary correspondence, wo for the present withhold it from our readers, out of respectful deference to his claims. It is a pretty long letter and according to tho IhtlsLorough Ouzttte, (a thorough locofo-co,) it does up the business for the u hard money faction " strong. GAMMON. The Statesman enquires of us if Mr. Cloy, and Mr. Corwin were "gammoned," because the former hospitaby entertained Mr. Van Huron at his house, and the latter addressed him on his arrival at Lebanon. Wo reply by asking in turn: Did Mr. Van Huron visit Ashlnrid in tho care of lticufoco keepers? Did he not doff" the party" before he entered Ijcbanon? II ho did not, he is welcome to all the gammon ho made oiT Tom. Corwin. If he did, it was right and proper that he should be treated with "respectful courtesy." Few men hotter know how to act as becomes a gentleman than Mr. Van Buren; what we regret in the matter is, Unit he so loosely practices what ho knows. clinton7;ounty! A day or two since wo alluded to tho want of perfect harmony among our friends of Clinton county. We apprehend the difficulty is not so serious there as might be inferred from the tenor of our remarks. At all events, we believo our neighbor of the Statesman t in his efforts to "fun t lie embers" of discord, will render essential service in effecting unity and concord among the Whigs, if that object had not already been attained. When tho Whigs of Clinton see the avidity with which the Lncofuco file-leaders seize hold of any distention in our ranks, we ore mistaken in their character if they do nut promptly remove all ground of apprehension on that scorn. The Statesman niny rest assured that his Iheeing and tliouingiiic Quakers of Clinton to qu an el for his bene lit, will prove love labor lout" THAT FISH.

Petty schemes of hatred and ambition, indeed 1 These ore the cause of our difficulty but in what quarter do they originate ? Not in Congress, but the White House from President who tut sacrificed the country to carry out hi "petty scheme i of hatred and ambition!" This whole affair is most ridiculous, and cannot fail to lessen Mr. Tyler in the estimation of all candid men. The Whigs of the country have sought no quarrel with him; there is among them every where a disposition to support his measures as far aa they can; and both in, and out of Congress, they have labored to carry forward all measures which promised any thing like relief to the people! Yet this President denominates them a faction, talks of their sacrificing the country, abuses their leading men as tnoHsintr politicians who think onlv of their petty schemes of hatred and ambition, and is so very very eager to vent his Bpleen, that he must forsooth. force an occasion by writing a miserable letter to Jo- soph umham, and, in clluct, tor the Cincinnati Republican!!We never read worse twaddle from any dema gogue.

The House devoted itself to-dny to considering, in Committee of the Whole, the Revenue Bill, or rather to the remarks of Mr. Fillmore, who ofiened the debute by a speech, which occupied the whole duy, of great power,clearness,and candor, and which was condensed a great amount of pertinent information. Mr. F. was listened to with nattering uttcntion by nn unusual full committee, du ring the whole three or four hours which he occupied ; andl remarked with pleasure that perfect order and silence were preserved by the able chairman, Mr. Mc-Kennan, whose voice has that fullness and volume, that it seems made fur command. I believe the house had got their master in the chair of authority at last I observed many members, chiefly from the South, taking notes, hut Mr. fcialtonstall has the floor for tomorrow, yielded to him, however, by Mr. Habersham, of Ga-, who is a member of the Committee on Manufactures, but, of course, speaks the sentiments of the South. This subject will call out the whole strength of the friends and opponents of a Tariff, and especially Turin tor incidental or other protection. Tho speeches will doubt lews appear in the National Intel ligencer in rapid succession, and you will be able to publish just as much of the discussion as you may find room for in your columns or may think interesting to your readers. It would be doing injustice to Mr. Fillmore, and probably it will be to other rjpeak-crs, to attempt to give an abstract of his remarks; indeed, they were so connected, one portion depending upon and being linked in so closely with other portions, that it would be no easy task to make an abstract of it that should possess any interest Mr. F., however, stntcd a few fuels which struck upon the ear of the I louse with much force ; iiurnely, that from IH'CI to 1KI0, seven years, there waa an liver go excess of expenditures over the revenue, of seven millions uf dollar, us follows : 1KI1, revenue fclli,-000,000, expenditures, 1H,00(,01)U i lh revenue .f l!i,(J00,(:()0 expenditures 17,000,000; l&ili, revenue .tft,0M.)00, expenditures fcOCO.OOO ; 1KI7, revenue 1 1 ,000.000. expenditures $1 1X00,000; 1 KJr, revenue 110,000,000. expenditures JllXWiOO ; I Kill revenue 1,000.000, expenditures 8-45.000,(100; 18-JO, revenue $1:1,000.000, expenditures '10,-000.

THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 16, 1842. GOV. SHANNON. This gentleman wob out ujion tho stump a few weeks ago, radiating light among his benighted disciples upon tho occult subject of "Bank Reform." About that time Mr. Hauler's Ohio Eagle letter made its appearance; but whether Mr. Shannon had seen it or not, we are not advised. But so it is, that since "about those dayB, the Governor hus maintained a most mysterious silence upon his favorite philosophy. Can any one inform us to which faction of the "pretended democrats" Wilson Shannon really belongs ? Is he a "hard money" democrat, or a Hnmer democrat? We have a curiosity to know something of Mr. Shannon, whereabouts in referenco to this matter. The people, in tho present attitude of affair, expect an open, frank, unreserved declaration of sentiment upon a topic upon which Mr. Shannon has delighted to dwell for four years past. They have a right to expect it and will not be satisfied with any blinking of the question. We demand therefore, in good faith, does Gov. Shannon hold with Mr. Hatner and his "West-Union" friends? Or does he continue to adhere to John Brough, and hi "hard -money" associates ? "Under which prince? speak or die !" BARON DE ROENNE, The Minister resident of the King of Prussia in the United States, visited this city on Monday and Tuesday last Ho is a plain, unostentatious gentleman of Republican manners, and travels without servants or parade.

He visited Columbus at the instance of his government, for the purpose of observing in person the operation of our Institutions of State charity, and especially the Lunatic Asylum, wluse fume has crossed the Atlantic, ami earned, for those who have tho management of its a (lairs an enviable reputation. RISKS OF MERCANTILE LIFE. Gen. Dearborn, in a lecture delivered last winter, before the farmers of the Massachusetts Legislature, declared tint !I7 out of every 100 persona who ob-tiined tliuir livelihood by buying and selling, failed, or died insolvent This fact ho ascertained by reference to tho books of the custom-house, tho bunks, the Probute oflko, and from tho recollections of tho oldest merchant. If this statement approximates tho truth in relation to the risks of mercantile life it should induce fathers who can plane their sons upon a farm to instil into thoir minds a love of agricultural pursuits. Gen. Dearborn declared that "lie would prefer a cottage in the country with five acres of ground, to tho most splendid palace that could be erected in the city, if he must deend upon tho success of merchandize to support it.' VAN BUREN-ST. LOUIS. It would seem from tho following, that the people of Missouri are notati familiar with the political tactic of Van Burenism. They regard it as d most singular more" for a few devoted frieudd to get up a letter of mviUtion in the namo of the democracy of St. Lovis, and get a partisan acceptance of such invitationand then turn round and very portly ask " citizens generally, without distinction of parlyn to endorse their proceedings, and come up to tho work, and give to Mr. Van Buren "a projier recep tion !" 1 he St. Louis Utiniblican of Juno 10. nob. lishea Mr. Van I ti iron's acceptance, "to show the character of tho invitation, and the understanding with which it wo received. It is as follow : -Ukrmitaue, May 10, 1H12. Gentlemen: Our friend, Mr. Hudson, has dc- ivered to me your friendly letter inviting me, in bo- hull' of my Democratic friends, to visit St Louis. I cannot be too thankful for the very obliging terms in winch you have been pleased to communicate their wishes.

Tho Republican doe not see tho propriety of the Whigs, alter reading this li tter, mingling, or taking any part, in tho reception.

Tho Republican adds: Wo ouco visited Mr. Van Buren in the bite House and he treated us very civilly if he desires to return tho call, and hud so signified, we would iavo put on a clean shtrl nnd tried to do tho decent thing.

We published yesterday a very singular produc tion from tho pen of CapL John Tyler, which purported to Imvo been called forth by the perusal of a letter written by the Hon. Lalvahv Munais, Hun-posing our reader might bo curious to read Mr. Moms letter, which ha thrown Hi Accidency into such an ecstatic spasm, wc have hunted it iit, and give it to our reader to-day.

But hero is the letter: Corn-qnmdcnrp of (he flocking Valley Onrrttr. Wabhinotoji Citv, May 18, 1HP4 Dear Sir: Although I have for some time been rather a silent observer of tho ruinous condition of the atVuirs of our beloved country, 1 have not been an inditleretit one. For some time 1 liavo been con vinced uf the imHrtance ol sK)fdy and e lb c lent effort on the patt of the people to rescue the country from tho oppression and rum in which party strilo and puity bickerings have involved us; but so strong have been the shackle of party, thrown around every man in public life that I too find it almost impossible to scut the curd. Party spirit and wrly strife, to a reasonable extent are commendable and praiseworthy, and ordinarily impart a healthful ititluetico over the whole body (Militic: but there is a Hml beyond which they become destine live to the nicrui, and even tho very liberties, of the w hole country j and 1 cannot but feel that 1 that point we have nearly arrived So long as party strife ha for its object tho accomplishment or carrying out of iinxirtaut measures involving the truo interests of the Government so lung should it no cherished and encouraged, but just as soon as these great principle are lost sight of and the jwli Ileal interests and promotion uf men, are substituted iu their itead, then it i that ruin and distress follow in tint train. Snrlt I conceive to be the present state of things, the contention seem to be tor men and not for measure. For months the inquiry hni been abroad among the people from olio end uf tho Union to tho other, " Why does not Congress do omethng by which tho peoplo unit tno country enn ue relieved ( I answer: it is not because it member do not labor intensely from day to day ; nor ia it because they prefer their ease to tho service of their constituents ; but it ia simply because party spirit nnd party considerations navo insinuated tnuinsuivo into an me public Dim ness of the country, and have acquired such control over the actions and transactions of public men that overy other consideration yields to their all-absorbed and controling influence: so much so that when a proposition for relief of the country is submitted, the inquiry is not will it meet the wants and subserve the interests of the people, but will it operate for or against this or that man's pretensions to the Presidency ? will it impart to, or diminish from tho party, more or less power? Hence tho protracted discussions, personal slander and abuse in the Legislative bodies throughout the country. in this stutc ot things there is but one course tor the people of this country to adopt and that is: to place their seal of disapprobation, in terms not to be misunderstood, upon the course pursued by some of the leaders of each party in and out of Congress to promote the interests of a few individuals who are aspiring to the Presidency at the expense of the whole country. Then, and not till then will their business be attended to and their rights protected. 1 ite people ought to demand a prompt and speedy action on the part of their public servants, and lie who throws himself in the wuy of that action ought to take the consequence. it will be time enough to select the cnndidate tor the Presidency after the country is righted up and the people relieved from their suni rings and embarrassments. It dues seem to fue that .iu patriot no lover of his country, no American citizen ought to stop to enquire, "who shall our next President be ?" while the country bleeds at every pore. Very resiiecltully, your otmiiient servant, CALVARY MORRIS. For the Oltio tilula Journal. Mn, Euitok: I discover in all the cities of the West where Mr, Vvu Buren has visited, a well us your own, he has been received by his party with the highest honors of military parade, the roaring nfcun- non, martial music, and shout ot applause announcing his approuch ; while thousands of his militical en emies received him respectfully. Whut can ull this meun r is the enquiry it is iiistllus: men huveulway showed more respect to fullen Angels, than to An gels ol light; not Unit I would inter that Mr. Van Buren has any connection w ith the friends of darkness, or any adherence to their works; morally he is us good as uny so tar as 1 know, and us a retired citizen, he might be respected, but it is certain ho is under condemnation us a public man, and that with out hope, and if the noise and show that attend him is any paliuuon, it would bo wrong tor any person to envy his happiness. But if he Hatters himself that his party can restore him to that office from which the people huve driven him, it is only another evidence of human weakness. As well might tillletl Adam have expected to regain his forfeited Eden, or Lucifer to reaseend the paradise of God, as for Martin Van Buren to be re-elected President of the U-nited Stutes. On what ground is this expectation placed after being rejected by such un overw helming majority at tho last Presidential election ? Oris it expected because the Almighty visited our nation in Judgment in removing by ileutli the man of the people's choice, and convincing the other party they were wrong in choosing a traitor in the stead, will these facts convince more than one hundred thousand majority of voters that Mr. Van Boron's administration was correct, and just such an one as the peoplo needed, and heaven approbated ? Or as ha already been interred, the Almighty removed General Harrison as an evidenco of his diplousurcut the party for rejecting Mr. Van Buren? Is there imbecility enough iu any person in this enlightened ago to believe in such iioutheiiish whims? No, Mr. Editor, 1 hivo more clnrity for mv countrymen on both side of the question, and i coi.sider it is nothing more or less Ui in abusing common sense in attempting to make any jmrson believo it, but it far more probable, that in I rill, the people w. II rise in the greatness of their strength, and again shako oil' (ho yoke of one mau power. WESTERN TRAVELER. I rom the Kirhnmtid VVhig. VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY. A gentleman of our acquaintance, a close ob sorter ot men and things, has just relumed from a trip throughout the Soiiliicrn Estates. He rejiort, that from the day he left Richmond, until he gut home, in every city, town, and hamlet in every suige, steam-car and steam boat he made diligent inquiry lor a Tyler iiian. ije nassed through tho Old North State the Land ol Umt hw ! wmw 4m m such animal wua to be lout id. He entered the hind of chivalry the region prolific of every Hung rich and rare but the combination of all its oddities coul J not make a conscience politician jtersc. Consistent and critical gentlemen ueru found in abundance but they all repudiated tho Conscience pait of toe curiosity. Ho felt confident lie should have better luck in Georgia. Some ugly splotches ujioh the fair escutcheon uf that gallant Sluto had induced li uu to supposu she might, uv some great exertion, give birth to such monsters. He was Hgreeably dis-apK)inted. He heard of some remote approxima tions but they proved to be failures. LiuMlulteru-ted Cow-buyim could not flourish in the land of Cntwford and Troup. The same result attended all hi researches in Alabama, LouiKium, Alisststuppi, Tennessee. Out of the pale of the ollicial corps among the people the object he was in quest of could no where bo found. Nature seemed to havo tho same abhorrenco to it a to a vacuum. He encountered in his tntvets tie vera I other gentlemen engaged in the same pursuit with hiiiiselt' Their labors had been fruitless as his own. He compared notes with them. Some of them had traversed every section and corner of the country and in ail tho little villages and large town by the way, hadofU-r-ed large rewards for a genuine ttrtium quid ot tho conscientious school. But in vain, the tlung did not cxit and cntild not be produced. Everywhere, but one sentiment prevailed (diarcd ulike by all men of all parties that of scorn and loathing lor the abortion, which sits in the Executive Chair. It almost excites one's pity to think of the wretched fate which this man has brought down uiion hiniielf. He will quit the station which he dihhonein, when his brief term (tno long tor hi country good expire, midst tho universal contempt and detestation of hi countrymen.

Our friend reports, that whilst he found the Whigs every where execrating (ho Irene heron creatine, whom, in an unlucky moment they had trusted; wiih one accord, they shouted tho limim of Harry of tho West and pointed to that great Patriot a the hope and stay of the Republic. Their scorn and abhorrence of Tyler the synonim of perfidy and weakness seemed to inflame their admiration and devotion to him, who is tho opposite to him in all things. When tho time come for tho combat and the whiM begin to crack, there will bo an outburst of Kpular fury against tho betrayer of tho national weal, and in aupMrt of those, who havo over stood by the honor and pnsqierily of the country which hits never been witnessed, since these States had a national existence.

The Lebanon O.Star give tho particular of an attempt to nib tho dwelling house of Mr. John Osborn, near that (dace, that equals tho daring of the bnndilti of the olden time. Tho robber, three or four in number, entered tho kitchen, lit candle, and advanced boldly to the lodging room of Mr. Oshurn and wife. Two of tho men placed themselves at the bedside, one having in his right hand a drawn dagger and in In left a cluh. '1 he sc renins of Mr. O. were silenced by the threat that instant death would follow their repetition. Two little girls in another room, awakened bv the noise fled and gave tho alarm. Meanwhile Mr. O. and wil'o were compelled to remain in bed, and the robber assured Mr, O. that his money and not hi life waa wanted. They demnmled where hi money might bo found, and Mr. O. gave n evasive answer. Ono of the knaves then searched the drawer of tho bureau for money, hut found none, whilo tho fourth, it ia supposed, guarded the stair to prevent iuterrnt lion from that quarter. No money having been obtained, a consultation was held by tho robbers, and the Star ay, "Air. l 'shorn, now that their attention waa ilrawn trout nun, embraced the opportunity of es cape, which ho effected through a window.

FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 17, 1842. ABOLITION MT. VERNON CONVENTION. We learn from the Mt Vernon papers, that the An ti-Slavery convention reccently held there was considerably divided upon the subject of political action many among the abolitionists refusing toco-operate in such movement And thut after the first Convention wua through with its business, and had ad journed, a number of those present, proceeded to or ganize themselves into a distinct body, loeceding from the Ohio Anti-Slavery Society, and forming another, auxiliary to the American Anti-Slavery Society, and discarding all political action. The Mt Vernon Banner says the disturbances on Wednesday evening, "kept them from splitting all to fl inters. The first convention broke up into three parties, and would have broken up into a dozen if let alone. HOME INDUSTRY. We observe by our exchange paper that the friends of Home Industry in the State of Ohia propose to hold a Convention in this city on the 4th of July. In several of tho counties, meetings have been held, ond delegates appointed to said Convention. We aro not apprised tint any movement has yet been made on the part of the friend of the cause in Franklin county. Wo desire to bring the subject to their notice, to tho end that when delegates ahull come in from distil nt counties, to deliberate upon the best means of fostering and encouraging American industry, they shall not find a total apathy upon the subject, brooding ovor the minds of this community. The people of Franklin county and of every township in the county aro as deeply interested in this matter, as are the people of of any other portion of the State. Why not, then be moving in concert with the people of other counties. We throw out these suggestions, that those whose province it is inure properly than our own, may tako action on the sub ject AUDITOR BROUGH. We have the pleasure to announce to our readers that the Auditor of State is again in this city after an absence of some ten day. He had been absent from hi official post some four weeks previous to Mr. Van Buren visit to Columbus, but reached home on the morning of the tlth paid homage to the Great Rejected and on the 7th disappeared in his train. Where they parted wo are not advised. Suffice it for the public to know that he has found his way back; and from his appeunuice wo feel warranted in con cluding that in his travels he has encountered no scarcity of bread and butter." Wo have not heard of any of his tabor on the stamp, since his efforts in Summit County, w hen he put to silence the complaint of "hard times" by assuring tho people that "the times are not hard he never got a higher salary than he gets now and never could buy mure provisions with tho samo amount of money than he can now, Therefore the complaint of hard times docs not "stuud to reason.' " MEANS AND ENDS," Is tho significant title of a neat little 13 mo. volume of 278 pages, by tho author of Redwood,' 'Hope Leslie,' 1 Home, ' Poor Rich Man, &c, fur a copy of which wo are indebted to tho attention of Messrs.

Tho book is well adapted to its design, which w, an aux iliary to the task of M self-training;" and is calculated fully to sustain the high reputation of tho authoress, earned by her preceding works.

A man hy tho name of Green, was killed on board the Pucket-boat " PhaJiiix," a few miles a-bove Chillicolhe, on Sunday evening, June 1!1. Ho entered ot Hebron, to go to Portsmouth. He was sitting on a trunk, by the side of a large store box, on tho deck of the boat, as it was passing under a bridge. The timbers of tho bridge coming in contact with his head, threw it upon tho box with such force as to mush the lid of the box and cause the immediate death of Mr. Green. The body was taken to Chilli cot lie, and an inquest held by the coroner, whoso report acquits the ofiicers and hands of the boat of all blamo for the fatal occurrence. There wu found upon the person of the deceased $;i,uO in money, beside some other chatties. Ho wassup-jar-Jed to bo about 53 or i0 years of age. "THREE HUNDRED) BLACK CROWS!" Tho Mt.

OITICIAL INTKKUdilM.I.Mf WITH FUNCTIONS. (iKNKKAL J Al KSO.N. AUm iUK JiKOIjlill. UOVKK.NOK COltWIN. Ono of the most posit ivo requisitions of Whig doctrine is, that persons holding offices of trust and profit in any other way than fiutn tho hands uf Ihe Peoplo directly, ought not to interfere, by word or deed, with the matter of pirty politic. Another e-qiially well established Whig doina is, that public servants whose duties require their whole time and personal attention for their due performance whether such officers he elected by the People, or appointed by higher functionaries ought not to spend their time in making electioneering tour or stieeche. It i for infringing constantly uon thi wholesome republican rule, that the people of the State complain so loudly of Auditor Brough, who is abnent I torn Ostumbiis nr a great part or the year, editing hi hard mony Iocofoco paper at Cincinnati. Jho Oiie-lerni principle, which was a punted so much and obtained such great favor with the I'cople in ln-lU, is still, and from its nature ever will be, an indiMpenmible consideration with enlightened republicans. This principle outfit! to be applied to ere m of Jieer in the country.from President dotni, irho hat the potPtr so to select appoint and disiose of his tubordi- nalcs in surh mount r as to promote nit re eitrtiott, btj the interference of those tnhord'nudtt, with the free suf frage of the Ptopfe.

Tho Pemde had seen too much, ilunng tho Administration of Jackson and Van Buren, of appointment' made for the express purjHweof forwarding party designs. land officer, post-musters, contractor, in short every species of place-men depending upon Executive favor, were selected fioin the most unscrupulous wrtisans, for the express purpose of furthering the i merest s of their patron. According to the Old Hero's own prophecy, "Corruption h id become tho order of the day," and the Peoplo embraced ho One-Terui Principle as a corrective. They were right Renin o all prospect ofre-election from a Presidential aspirant and you tako from nun a thousand temptation to abuse hi appointed power. The father of Ohio, who framed tho Constitution under which our State ho prospen'd for the last forty year, w isely w ithheld from the Chief Executive Officer both the Voto and Uio apninting Powers, vesting them in the Legislature, w hile they circumscribed the Governor's functions to very narrow limits. His duties are few although importunt, and occupy, in their necessary performance, but a portion of Ins time. If it were not thus, the salary of our Governor would be far inadequate to hi station. Not having any patronage at ins bestowal, no ono would, of couto, vote for him, savo upon ronstderntions of hi fitness for the otfico and iqon Uio merit of the political principle ho re pre, uts. From these petitions, it will be readily seen that there is nothing, either in reason, precedent or principle, to prevent Gov. Corwin from addressing tho People ol the State on political matter, during tho progress id' tho ensuing campaign, from time to lime, opportunity may oiler. The Mnss Conventions, at Clcvflund, Znnesville, Dayton and Chillicotho, which will be held before October, ought to meet on different weeks, so as to give the People a chance to hear Uio Governor's sentiments, at all of them, from his own mouth. Should such an arrangement be a-greed upon, tho candidate need in no wise neglect the dutiei of the ojfiet. Wu should bo very sorry to eo Governor Corwin yield to the ill-judtred solicitations of In political ft lend, and perambulate the Slate, after tho reprehensible manner of Wilson Shannon in lt4U Then, for five month at tenst, Ohio had no real Governor, ho grossly were the ollicial duties neglected by tho nominal incumbent, who with Colonel Johnson, Kuithqiiake Allen and Auditor II rough, went about the country abiMing General Harrison, and preaching " lUnk Refurm." lt then, tho four or fivo Muss Conventions bo held at such tunes as will afford the Whig candidate for Governor an opportunity to attend thorn without neglecting the duties of hi office.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE 15, 1842. CLAY CLUB It is quite evident now and if there had been any doubts upon the subject, the last Statesman would have dialled them that the meeting on Saturday evening was any thing but to the taste of the " html money faction who are laboring hard to coax the people of Ohio to believe thai u democracy " is good to eat! Well now, this is to be regretted ; and as the Editor finds especial fault with some of the resolutions, we suggest, when the Whigs aguin attempt to express their sentiments, that before they commit them to the public they have thorn printed in the O-hio Statesman, and obtain the Editor's approval ! This would remove at least one cause of complaint If the Prophet will not come to the mountain, let the mountain go to the Prophet Let there bo no distentions between tho Whigs and the courteous State Printer!

The Statesman enquires of us if Mr. Cloy, and Mr. Corwin were "gammoned," because the former hospitaby entertained Mr. Van Huron at his house, and the latter addressed him on his arrival at Lebanon. Wo reply by asking in turn: Did Mr. Van Huron visit Ashlnrid in tho care of lticufoco keepers? Did he not doff" the party" before he entered Ijcbanon? II ho did not, he is welcome to all the gammon ho made oiT Tom. Corwin. If he did, it was right and proper that he should be treated with "respectful courtesy." Few men hotter know how to act as becomes a gentleman than Mr. Van Buren; what we regret in the matter is, Unit he so loosely practices what ho knows. clinton7;ounty! A day or two since wo alluded to tho want of perfect harmony among our friends of Clinton county. We apprehend the difficulty is not so serious there as might be inferred from the tenor of our remarks. At all events, we believo our neighbor of the Statesman t in his efforts to "fun t lie embers" of discord, will render essential service in effecting unity and concord among the Whigs, if that object had not already been attained. When tho Whigs of Clinton see the avidity with which the Lncofuco file-leaders seize hold of any distention in our ranks, we ore mistaken in their character if they do nut promptly remove all ground of apprehension on that scorn.

Mr. F. was listened to with nattering uttcntion by nn unusual full committee, du ring the whole three or four hours which he occupied ; andl remarked with pleasure that perfect order and silence were preserved by the able chairman, Mr. Mc-Kennan, whose voice has that fullness and volume, that it seems made fur command.

THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 16, 1842. GOV. SHANNON. This gentleman wob out ujion tho stump a few weeks ago, radiating light among his benighted disciples upon tho occult subject of "Bank Reform." About that time Mr. Hauler's Ohio Eagle letter made its appearance; but whether Mr. Shannon had seen it or not, we are not advised. But so it is, that since "about those dayB, the Governor hus maintained a most mysterious silence upon his favorite philosophy. Can any one inform us to which faction of the "pretended democrats" Wilson Shannon really belongs ? Is he a "hard money" democrat, or a Hnmer democrat? We have a curiosity to know something of Mr. Shannon, whereabouts in referenco to this matter. The people, in tho present attitude of affair, expect an open, frank, unreserved declaration of sentiment upon a topic upon which Mr. Shannon has delighted to dwell for four years past. They have a right to expect it and will not be satisfied with any blinking of the question. We demand therefore, in good faith, does Gov. Shannon hold with Mr. Hatner and his "West-Union" friends? Or does he continue to adhere to John Brough, and hi "hard -money" associates ? "Under which prince? speak or die !"

If this statement approximates tho truth in relation to the risks of mercantile life it should induce fathers who can plane their sons upon a farm to instil into thoir minds a love of agricultural pursuits. Gen. Dearborn declared that "lie would prefer a cottage in the country with five acres of ground, to tho most splendid palace that could be erected in the city, if he must deend upon tho success of merchandize to support it.'

Wabhinotoji Citv, May 18, 1HP4 Dear Sir: Although I have for some time been rather a silent observer of tho ruinous condition of the atVuirs of our beloved country, 1 have not been an inditleretit one. For some time 1 liavo been con vinced uf the imHrtance ol sK)fdy and e lb c lent effort on the patt of the people to rescue the country from tho oppression and rum in which party strilo and puity bickerings have involved us; but so strong have been the shackle of party, thrown around every man in public life that I too find it almost impossible to scut the curd. Party spirit and wrly strife, to a reasonable extent are commendable and praiseworthy, and ordinarily impart a healthful ititluetico over the whole body (Militic: but there is a Hml beyond which they become destine live to the nicrui, and even tho very liberties, of the w hole country j and 1 cannot but feel that 1 that point we have nearly arrived So long as party strife ha for its object tho accomplishment or carrying out of iinxirtaut measures involving the truo interests of the Government so lung should it no cherished and encouraged, but just as soon as these great principle are lost sight of and the jwli Ileal interests and promotion uf men, are substituted iu their itead, then it i that ruin and distress follow in tint train. Snrlt I conceive to be the present state of things, the contention seem to be tor men and not for measure. For months the inquiry hni been abroad among the people from olio end uf tho Union to tho other, " Why does not Congress do omethng by which tho peoplo unit tno country enn ue relieved ( I answer: it is not because it member do not labor intensely from day to day ; nor ia it because they prefer their ease to tho service of their constituents ; but it ia simply because party spirit nnd party considerations navo insinuated tnuinsuivo into an me public Dim ness of the country, and have acquired such control over the actions and transactions of public men that overy other consideration yields to their all-absorbed and controling influence: so much so that when a proposition for relief of the country is submitted, the inquiry is not will it meet the wants and subserve the interests of the people, but will it operate for or against this or that man's pretensions to the Presidency ? will it impart to, or diminish from tho party, more or less power? Hence tho protracted discussions, personal slander and abuse in the Legislative bodies throughout the country. in this stutc ot things there is but one course tor the people of this country to adopt and that is: to place their seal of disapprobation, in terms not to be misunderstood, upon the course pursued by some of the leaders of each party in and out of Congress to promote the interests of a few individuals who are aspiring to the Presidency at the expense of the whole country. Then, and not till then will their business be attended to and their rights protected. 1 ite people ought to demand a prompt and speedy action on the part of their public servants, and lie who throws himself in the wuy of that action ought to take the consequence. it will be time enough to select the cnndidate tor the Presidency after the country is righted up and the people relieved from their suni rings and embarrassments. It dues seem to fue that .iu patriot no lover of his country, no American citizen ought to stop to enquire, "who shall our next President be ?" while the country bleeds at every pore. Very resiiecltully, your otmiiient servant, CALVARY MORRIS. For the Oltio tilula Journal. Mn, Euitok: I discover in all the cities of the West where Mr, Vvu Buren has visited, a well us your own, he has been received by his party with the highest honors of military parade, the roaring nfcun- non, martial music, and shout ot applause announcing his approuch ; while thousands of his militical en emies received him respectfully. Whut can ull this meun r is the enquiry it is iiistllus: men huveulway showed more respect to fullen Angels, than to An gels ol light; not Unit I would inter that Mr. Van Buren has any connection w ith the friends of darkness, or any adherence to their works; morally he is us good as uny so tar as 1 know, and us a retired citizen, he might be respected, but it is certain ho is under condemnation us a public man, and that with out hope, and if the noise and show that attend him is any paliuuon, it would bo wrong tor any person to envy his happiness. But if he Hatters himself that his party can restore him to that office from which the people huve driven him, it is only another evidence of human weakness. As well might tillletl Adam have expected to regain his forfeited Eden, or Lucifer to reaseend the paradise of God, as for Martin Van Buren to be re-elected President of the U-nited Stutes. On what ground is this expectation placed after being rejected by such un overw helming majority at tho last Presidential election ? Oris it expected because the Almighty visited our nation in Judgment in removing by ileutli the man of the people's choice, and convincing the other party they were wrong in choosing a traitor in the stead, will these facts convince more than one hundred thousand majority of voters that Mr. Van Boron's administration was correct, and just such an one as the peoplo needed, and heaven approbated ? Or as ha already been interred, the Almighty removed General Harrison as an evidenco of his diplousurcut the party for rejecting Mr. Van Buren? Is there imbecility enough iu any person in this enlightened ago to believe in such iioutheiiish whims? No, Mr. Editor, 1 hivo more clnrity for mv countrymen on both side of the question, and i coi.sider it is nothing more or less Ui in abusing common sense in attempting to make any jmrson believo it, but it far more probable, that in I rill, the people w. II rise in the greatness of their strength, and again shako oil' (ho yoke of one mau power. WESTERN TRAVELER. I rom the Kirhnmtid VVhig. VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY. A gentleman of our acquaintance, a close ob sorter ot men and things, has just relumed from a trip throughout the Soiiliicrn Estates.

He entered the hind of chivalry the region prolific of every Hung rich and rare but the combination of all its oddities coul J not make a conscience politician jtersc. Consistent and critical gentlemen ueru found in abundance but they all repudiated tho Conscience pait of toe curiosity. Ho felt confident lie should have better luck in Georgia. Some ugly splotches ujioh the fair escutcheon uf that gallant Sluto had induced li uu to supposu she might, uv some great exertion, give birth to such monsters. He was Hgreeably dis-apK)inted. He heard of some remote approxima tions but they proved to be failures. LiuMlulteru-ted Cow-buyim could not flourish in the land of Cntwford and Troup. The same result attended all hi researches in Alabama, LouiKium, Alisststuppi, Tennessee. Out of the pale of the ollicial corps among the people the object he was in quest of could no where bo found. Nature seemed to havo tho same abhorrenco to it a to a vacuum. He encountered in his tntvets tie vera I other gentlemen engaged in the same pursuit with hiiiiselt' Their labors had been fruitless as his own. He compared notes with them. Some of them had traversed every section and corner of the country and in ail tho little villages and large town by the way, hadofU-r-ed large rewards for a genuine ttrtium quid ot tho conscientious school. But in vain, the tlung did not cxit and cntild not be produced. Everywhere, but one sentiment prevailed (diarcd ulike by all men of all parties that of scorn and loathing lor the abortion, which sits in the Executive Chair. It almost excites one's pity to think of the wretched fate which this man has brought down uiion hiniielf. He will quit the station which he dihhonein, when his brief term (tno long tor hi country good expire, midst tho universal contempt and detestation of hi countrymen. May his Into be a warning through all tune to aspiring weakness to vanity and to peihdy. Our friend reports, that whilst he found the Whigs every where execrating (ho Irene heron creatine, whom, in an unlucky moment they had trusted; wiih one accord, they shouted tho limim of Harry of tho West and pointed to that great Patriot a the hope and stay of the Republic. Their scorn and abhorrence of Tyler the synonim of perfidy and weakness seemed to inflame their admiration and devotion to him, who is tho opposite to him in all things. When tho time come for tho combat and the whiM begin to crack, there will bo an outburst of Kpular fury against tho betrayer of tho national weal, and in aupMrt of those, who havo over stood by the honor and pnsqierily of the country which hits never been witnessed, since these States had a national existence.

The Mt Vernon Banner says the disturbances on Wednesday evening, "kept them from splitting all to fl inters.

Wo desire to bring the subject to their notice, to tho end that when delegates ahull come in from distil nt counties, to deliberate upon the best means of fostering and encouraging American industry, they shall not find a total apathy upon the subject, brooding ovor the minds of this community. The people of Franklin county and of every township in the county aro as deeply interested in this matter, as are the people of of any other portion of the State. Why not, then be moving in concert with the people of other counties. We throw out these suggestions, that those whose province it is inure properly than our own, may tako action on the sub ject AUDITOR BROUGH. We have the pleasure to announce to our readers that the Auditor of State is again in this city after an absence of some ten day. He had been absent from hi official post some four weeks previous to Mr. Van Buren visit to Columbus, but reached home on the morning of the tlth paid homage to the Great Rejected and on the 7th disappeared in his train. Where they parted wo are not advised. Suffice it for the public to know that he has found his way back; and from his appeunuice wo feel warranted in con cluding that in his travels he has encountered no scarcity of bread and butter." Wo have not heard of any of his tabor on the stamp, since his efforts in Summit County, w hen he put to silence the complaint of "hard times" by assuring tho people that "the times are not hard he never got a higher salary than he gets now and never could buy mure provisions with tho samo amount of money than he can now, Therefore the complaint of hard times docs not "stuud to reason.'

A man hy tho name of Green, was killed on board the Pucket-boat " PhaJiiix," a few miles a-bove Chillicolhe, on Sunday evening, June 1!1. Ho entered ot Hebron, to go to Portsmouth. He was sitting on a trunk, by the side of a large store box, on tho deck of the boat, as it was passing under a bridge. The timbers of tho bridge coming in contact with his head, threw it upon tho box with such force as to mush the lid of the box and cause the immediate death of Mr. Green. The body was taken to Chilli cot lie, and an inquest held by the coroner, whoso report acquits the ofiicers and hands of the boat of all blamo for the fatal occurrence.

OITICIAL INTKKUdilM.I.Mf WITH FUNCTIONS. (iKNKKAL J Al KSO.N. AUm iUK JiKOIjlill. UOVKK.NOK COltWIN. Ono of the most posit ivo requisitions of Whig doctrine is, that persons holding offices of trust and profit in any other way than fiutn tho hands uf Ihe Peoplo directly, ought not to interfere, by word or deed, with the matter of pirty politic. Another e-qiially well established Whig doina is, that public servants whose duties require their whole time and personal attention for their due performance whether such officers he elected by the People, or appointed by higher functionaries ought not to spend their time in making electioneering tour or stieeche. It i for infringing constantly uon thi wholesome republican rule, that the people of the State complain so loudly of Auditor Brough, who is abnent I torn Ostumbiis nr a great part or the year, editing hi hard mony Iocofoco paper at Cincinnati. Jho Oiie-lerni principle, which was a punted so much and obtained such great favor with the I'cople in ln-lU, is still, and from its nature ever will be, an indiMpenmible consideration with enlightened republicans. This principle outfit! to be applied to ere m of Jieer in the country.from President dotni, irho hat the potPtr so to select appoint and disiose of his tubordi- nalcs in surh mount r as to promote nit re eitrtiott, btj the interference of those tnhord'nudtt, with the free suf frage of the Ptopfe.

Tho Pemde had seen too much, ilunng tho Administration of Jackson and Van Buren, of appointment' made for the express purjHweof forwarding party designs. land officer, post-musters, contractor, in short every species of place-men depending upon Executive favor, were selected fioin the most unscrupulous wrtisans, for the express purpose of furthering the i merest s of their patron. According to the Old Hero's own prophecy, "Corruption h id become tho order of the day," and the Peoplo embraced ho One-Terui Principle as a corrective. They were right Renin o all prospect ofre-election from a Presidential aspirant and you tako from nun a thousand temptation to abuse hi appointed power. The father of Ohio, who framed tho Constitution under which our State ho prospen'd for the last forty year, w isely w ithheld from the Chief Executive Officer both the Voto and Uio apninting Powers, vesting them in the Legislature, w hile they circumscribed the Governor's functions to very narrow limits. His duties are few although importunt, and occupy, in their necessary performance, but a portion of Ins time. If it were not thus, the salary of our Governor would be far inadequate to hi station. Not having any patronage at ins bestowal, no ono would, of couto, vote for him, savo upon ronstderntions of hi fitness for the otfico and iqon Uio merit of the political principle ho re pre, uts. From these petitions, it will be readily seen that there is nothing, either in reason, precedent or principle, to prevent Gov. Corwin from addressing tho People ol the State on political matter, during tho progress id' tho ensuing campaign, from time to lime, opportunity may oiler. The Mnss Conventions, at Clcvflund, Znnesville, Dayton and Chillicotho, which will be held before October, ought to meet on different weeks, so as to give the People a chance to hear Uio Governor's sentiments, at all of them, from his own mouth. Should such an arrangement be a-greed upon, tho candidate need in no wise neglect the dutiei of the ojfiet. Wu should bo very sorry to eo Governor Corwin yield to the ill-judtred solicitations of In political ft lend, and perambulate the Slate, after tho reprehensible manner of Wilson Shannon in lt4U Then, for five month at tenst, Ohio had no real Governor, ho grossly were the ollicial duties neglected by tho nominal incumbent, who with Colonel Johnson, Kuithqiiake Allen and Auditor II rough, went about the country abiMing General Harrison, and preaching " lUnk Refurm." lt then, tho four or fivo Muss Conventions bo held at such tunes as will afford the Whig candidate for Governor an opportunity to attend thorn without neglecting the duties of hi office.

The present ratio was agreed to when the po; ul.-tion was but twelve millions, and now instead tV n.-crcufiug the representation as the population innec-ses, tho Senate proiosed that with a population ( f lb million we should huve a smaller number of Representatives.
